Name a good fantasy novel or series.

I'm looking for something accessible but not too dumb for some good bedtime reading.

Details will be appreciated.

So many! But the one that comes to mind, that was a page-turner and made me an insomniac was a series by Patrick Rothfuss. Warning: He hasn't finished the series yet, and I'm eagerly awaiting the next installment. The Kingkiller Chronicle. 1st book: The Name of the Wind...

Jim Butcher's The Dresden Files and The Codex Alera were both awesome.

Robin Hobb- Farseer Trilogy

Robert Jordan- The Wheel of Time series

@CCMorgan Three people recommended it on here so I think it's a fit. I might read King killer sometime too...

You’ve been warned, lol!

Dresden is great by Jim Butcher. Set in a modern world where mythology of all sorts is real.

Wheel of Time by Robert Jordan is set in a future world where society has broken down and reverted to a sort of medieval

Brandon Sanderson’s entire works. He is outstanding and has multiple worlds with really creative magic systems. He finished writing wheel of time after Jordan died.

Fitz and the Fool series from Robin Hobb isn’t great. About an assassin.

Kingkiller Cronicles from Pat Rothfuss is about a bard who avenges the murder of his family

My husband is a huge fan of Dresden files. Urban fantasy. Lots of books. Wizard centered in Chicago.

I mostly go in the app that my local library uses and download whatever is available

I haven't read this but I have friends losing their minds about NK Jemisin's Broken Earth series. So I'm getting that and will let you know!

@CountScrofula Thanks bud. Please do

CCMorgan · 51-55, M

Awesome! I’m definitely checking that out... @CountScrofula

The Wheel of Time series by Robert Jordan, which stretches to 14 volumes is good bedtime reading, if you like long sagas.

@Tuscan I tried getting into that once but couldn't. Thanks though.

CCMorgan · 51-55, M

This was the one series that spanned most of my adult life reading, lol! Brandon Sanderson did I great job completing them, after Robert died... it tuned me in to his works too. @Tuscan

Count sheeps. Let me start it off for you. 1 sheep...

@SINAI I also like reading. Try it sometime. It's more cathartic than trolling the Internet.

@Burnley123 Such an intellectual. Rub it in more.
